Alibaba Tongyi has officially open-sourced its network agent WebSailor, which possesses strong reasoning and retrieval capabilities.
After practical testing on the BrowseComp evaluation dataset for both Chinese and English tasks, the 32B and 72B versions of WebSailor have performed excellently, surpassing multiple closed-source models such as DeepSeek R1 and Grok-3, ranking second only to DeepResearch from OpenAI. This achievement marks Alibaba's continued efforts in the field of agent technology. In 2023, the Tongyi Lab has already open-sourced three agents: WebWalker, WebDancer, and WebSailor.
Galaxy Securities has paid close attention to this trend, pointing out that the AI Agent economy has fully opened up, and the iteration of technology and products is an irreversible trend. The report recommends investors to pay attention to vertical industries and SAAS companies that are leading in the AI Agent field.
Related listed companies such as Focus Technology and Zhongke Jincai have also made arrangements in AI Agent technology applications. Focus Technology's Mentarc product uses AI Agent technology to provide smart product selection analysis, source finding, and store operation optimization services for global distributors and cross-border e-commerce, helping small and medium-sized merchants quickly start cross-border trade. Zhongke Jincai is a service provider of Alibaba Cloud's public cloud AI large model framework and is currently promoting the application of agent technology in the commercial banking sector.
Overall, Alibaba's open-sourcing of WebSailor not only enhances the technical standardization of domestic AI Agents but also lowers the access threshold for enterprises, benefiting SAAS companies in integrating agent functions.
Additionally, Alibaba's continuous technological iteration may put some pressure on small AI companies, but it will also prompt closed-source model vendors to accelerate their technology optimization. Investors should closely monitor the actual application scenarios of agent technology and the enterprise transformation capabilities to seize market opportunities.
